10MET to support tomorrow’s ATMEnhanced decision-making capability through improved accuracy, capability, availability and use of meteorological informationThe reliable identification of applicable ATM solutions when meteorological conditions are impacting or are forecast to impact aerodromes or airspaceFull ATM-MET integration is necessary Meteorological information included in the logic of a decision process or aidASBU Module No. B1-105 ICAO SIP 2012- ASBU workshopsATM DECISION SUPPORT MET INFORMATION FUSED WITH OTHER AERONAUTICAL INFORMATION ATM IMPACT CONVERSION ATM OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENT AIRSPACE CONTRAINTS AND AERODROME EVENTS
MET provision tomorrowWXCM, WXXM and WXXS are designed to enable:platform independentharmonized Interoperable MET information exchange covering all the needs of the air transport industryThrough shared, timely, high-quality MET information Major benefits include:Single representation/ common viewAlignment with ISO standards and OGC best practices for geospatial information Modularity to support future requirements MET information at the right time and the right place ICAO SIP 2012- ASBU workshops 11
